Frequency response analysis is the technique whereby a sinusoidal test signal is used to measure points on the frequency response of a transfer function or impedance function. Sweep Frequency Response Analysis (SFRA) testing provides insight into the mechanical and electrical integrity of transformers.
Main Purpose of SFRA Test: Transformer Core displacement Winding displacement for both rotor and transformer Broken or loosen clamp connections Inter turn short circuit Internal short circuit Winding to Core Earth fault Winding Open circuit condition
Slip, s = (Ns - Nr)/Ns Ns = 120f/P 0.05 = (1000 - Nr)/1000 Nr = 950 rpm Speed of rotor with respect to stator magnetic field = 950 - 1000 = -50 rpm
Speed of the stator magnetic field with respect to stator core = 0 Speed of the rotor magnetic field with respect to rotor = sNs Speed of the stator magnetic field with respect to rotor magnetic field = 0 Speed of the rotor magnetic field with respect to stator core = Ns
